    Yeah, I wonder if it will do any better.

    I played a bit of that first one on 3DS. It was... interesting, but the combat system was bizarre.

    How are they at, like, actually fighting?

    Pretty shitty, I'd guess.

    Surprisingly decent, especially since they are usually max level and could have high stats from repeated resets. I'd swap them out for bosses, but they are perfectly serviceable for most everything else.
    I am really touched by your earnestness, which is why I feel like I have to own up to the fact that I was 100% not genuine with my post. I had a very different and very shallow reason for writing that post.

    I thiiiink the second one was the peak of the series?

    Like the first one garnered a lot of excitement, and the second one is where it really blew the fuck up

    The third one "only" did about as well as the first one

    i've seen exactly one episode and it had a guy that was so miserable he died and got turned into a dog ghost monster which isn't really relevant but was such an affecting horror concept even for a kids' show it stuck with me this long, probably five years later

    There's an episode of the Muppet show where a machine takes Muppet faces off and gives them the face of the last victim. I saw it when I was like 8

    Its still very disturbing to me now

    man you never knew when the Muppet show was going to fuck you up. although some guests were more obvious than other, the Alice Cooper episode is pretty much child-nightmare fuel the whole way through. even the scenes where he's not present are unsettling, the one that got me was Beaker being enveloped by a large bacteria and the effect they used to make it is still disturbing to me

    Going with the thread title I beat the first Bayonetta game this week. I enjoyed it, overall. Its utter ludicrousness had me grinning and giggling frequently.

    I had a Digimon virtual pet back in the late 90s, before the show or the expanded lore was a thing, when Digimon was just a masculine-coded version of Tamagotchi

    Watching the show later I couldn't help thinking that they never really topped the designs for that first set. The secret ultra-powerful Digimon being a surly teddy bear that shot hearts? Amazing

    Reminds me how one of the strongest original Digimon in the first season of the show was random guy dressed up in a monkey costume with a microphone and sunglasses acting like Elvis

    That particular digimon is actually part of a somewhat prominent sidequest in Cyber Sleuth.

    Hyrule Warriors is a lot of fun but I just failed a mission because I couldn't defeat the boss but it seemed like shooting it in the eye only worked occasionally? Like I recognized that you had to shoot him in the eye when his eye turned blue, but that seemed to happen extremely rarely!

    It turns blue after he shoots a laser. Gotta keep your distance to bait the laser, then dodge and arrow.

    Yeah, I was not dodging nearly as much as I needed to.

    On the other hand, at least it keeps your character progress, so it’s not as if I lost everything!

    Some of those giant bosses in Hyrule Warriors are super annoying because of how randomly they’ll use their unsafe moves.

    Just spit the seeds, Manhandla! I don’t have all day!

    And every so often they'll move to a new section and you're having to chase them the entire way

    frankly every character they launched with that felt designed to provide some playstyles to players that felt intimidated by FPSes has since had their gameplay significantly changed to make them more FPS-y

    I know there's a lot of truth to this, but I assume Reinhardt is still an exception.
